Liquitex Professional Gesso Surface Prep Medium, 118ml (4-oz), Clear

Liquitex offers the broadest range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. Surface Prep Mediums are used to seal, prime, and add tooth (for color adhesion) to all surfaces such as canvas, wood, paper, and metal. This same preparation is used for both acrylic and oil paint. Our professional gessoes usually take just one coat, and adding Liquitex Soft Body color to any gesso creates customized tints and primers.

Liquitex Clear Gesso Surface Prep Medium is an ideal high-tooth for pastel, oil pastel, graphite, and charcoal. It serves as an excellent ground for acrylic and oil paint, and can be mixed with acrylic color to have a tinted ground. Depending on the thickness, it dries clear to translucent. It is an excellent base coat primer for many applications, including murals, and can be applied to any material or surface that will accept traditional acrylic media, such as canvas, paper, wood, etc.

Liquitex Surface Prep Mediums are lightweight, non-toxic, and dry to a water-resistant, non-yellowing surface. They can be used on canvas, paper, wood, or any clean, porous, non-oily surface. These mediums size and prime while maintaining the original appearance of the surface, and provide paper with good tooth for chalk and oil pastel techniques. A small amount of transparent or translucent acrylic color can be mixed with the medium to tint the ground while maintaining transparency.

Liquitex offers a full product assortment, which can be found on their Amazon Storefront. The Fluid in Nature medium is designed to reduce the viscosity of heavier paints and gels, and comes in a 4-oz / 118ml bottle. It is intermixable with Liquitex Professional Acrylic Paint Colors and Mediums, and conforms to ASTM D4236, making it safe for educational use.
